Speaker 3: Day shout out people who just want to make their
Speaker 3: head stand up with a balloon. I don't have hair,
Speaker 3: so do it on my behalf. So I made the
Speaker 3: early balloon flight.
Speaker 2: Is that like they didn't know that people could be
Speaker 2: alive above a certain height. Yeah, and so they like
Speaker 2: sent a sheep up for like some animal up and
Speaker 2: then brought it down.
Speaker 3: They were like, it's still live, yes, oh, but it
Speaker 3: made it ship all over the thing.
Speaker 2: What the hell it like. They also had a theory
Speaker 2: that you couldn't humans couldn't survive above thirty three miles
Speaker 2: per hour. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why. That's why the one ten is the
Speaker 1: way it is, right because they're just like, this is
Speaker 1: the top speed any human could ever go. Oh, that's
Speaker 1: two lanes with like forty suicide on ramps.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it won't be a problem those you know, that's
Speaker 3: such a La thing. But Northeast La, where that fucking
Speaker 3: one ten turns into a fucking two lane horse highway,
Speaker 3: it's yeah, it's always so good wrenching when you see
Speaker 3: somebody trying to pull on and most people know well enough,
Speaker 3: they're like, bro, just get out of that first lane, man,
Speaker 3: because you don't know who the fuck's gonna try and
Speaker 3: get on here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, with their first day drive. Well, No, I was
Speaker 1: just on that highway this morning behind someone with Florida plates.
Speaker 1: Oh not. They riving, in my opinion, not driving safely,
Speaker 1: as in they were going too fast. But they were. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they were going like forty eight in that they don't
Speaker 1: know what that right wage. Yeah, it was not gonna
Speaker 1: be good for them.
Speaker 2: Mine, it's fine, everybody. My name is Jack O'Brien aka
Speaker 2: Potatoes O'Brien, and I'm thrilled to be joined as always
Speaker 2: by my co host, mister Miles Gray.
Speaker 3: It's Miles Gray, aka the Gray Gooner. Now, I I
Speaker 3: have been calling myself that before.
Speaker 1: The term of gooning. That is a reference to being
Speaker 1: an Arsenal Football club supporter.
Speaker 3: I am the Great Gooner, but on other web boards,
Speaker 3: I'm also the Gray Gooner. All that to say, it's
Speaker 3: good to be here. I'm the Lord of Lakashima sugun
Speaker 3: win no gun and it's Friday.
Speaker 2: So did Arsenal fans innovate in the world of gooning?
Speaker 2: Is that? How it? They are?
Speaker 3: They the course, the players they call the team the gunners,
Speaker 3: and then the supporters they call the gooners. It's just
Speaker 3: like there's a derivation of that, but it's now caused
Speaker 3: like a whole bunch of online comedy that's only very
Speaker 3: specific to like people who know.
Speaker 1: What gray do you see her to stand?
Speaker 3: So he's going, no, there's like this sketch I saw
Speaker 3: where guy's like got an arsenal fan or another guy's
Speaker 3: got to show.
Speaker 1: That says like gooner on it, and hey man, great match,
Speaker 1: and you guys like, what what are you talking about?
Speaker 3: I was like, dude, that was a great win today.
Speaker 1: He's like, huh, what do you mean?
Speaker 2: No, man, I'm just just a gooner.
Speaker 1: I'm just gooning. Bro. I forget. One of my friends
Speaker 1: as a lawyer, was telling me that something we've gotten
Speaker 1: to the point where somehow she had to take a deposition,
Speaker 1: and I don't remember anyway, somehow the phrase like no,
Speaker 1: that's for gooner's was entered into the public record.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, And do you know which one that was.
Speaker 1: Replica?
Speaker 3: I think maybe no? Oh, okay, then I think maybe
Speaker 3: different of the different persuasions.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I wonder what it was that was just
Speaker 1: for gooners. I don't remember now, I'm like, what do
Speaker 1: you mean? Because it was it was It was like
Speaker 1: a quote from something that may or may not have
Speaker 1: been relevant, but she was just like, now I had
Speaker 1: to get something I'd explain to some judge or something.
Speaker 1: Charge what it was. It was a statement. It was
Speaker 1: like part of a statement. Yeah, yeah, I get it.
Speaker 1: I get it.
Speaker 2: Myles thrilled to be joined in our third seat. One
Speaker 2: of our very favorite guests, our legal gooning expert, as
Speaker 2: well as a hilarious and brilliant producer and writer of TV.
Speaker 2: You know him from the ys This Racist podcast and
Speaker 2: the New Starter Trek podcast. It's Andrew too.
Speaker 1: And I didn't think of doing anything that sound. I
Speaker 1: thought it would be funny to put my fucking Thearra
Speaker 1: gun on my chest and talk.
Speaker 2: I was like, yo, someone just start up like a way.
Speaker 1: But it's your temple bro hard reset, ye, give it
Speaker 1: a hard reset.
Speaker 2: I got my hard reset in during the countdown for
Speaker 2: New Year's like three two one. Then I just had
Speaker 2: a hard reset.
Speaker 1: I don't remember guns. Yeah, yeah, Temple. It's a it's
Speaker 1: an at home neuralizer from minute. But they got to
Speaker 1: sync up at some point, right if you got to
Speaker 1: just that that that tiny brief window.
Speaker 3: Otherwise, going back and that also sounds like some dumb
Speaker 3: ass ship were like, if you can get like resonated
Speaker 3: a certain brain frequency, dude, you can get this.
Speaker 1: They're going to like actually.
Speaker 3: Develop your like, uh, you know, telekinetics.
Speaker 2: We should get that. Trending on men's rights.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, put a Jack Hammard to your fucking
Speaker 3: dome so you can move your way.
Speaker 1: This thing, this thing, I will just say whatever this was.
Speaker 1: This was also I forgot which I had give. This
Speaker 1: was my underrated. It turns out I do like massage things.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna skip my head. I listen, we're doing
Speaker 1: my underrated.
Speaker 2: Turns out like massage.
Speaker 1: You guys, you guys have shipped to do you guys
Speaker 1: have ship? What do you need to talk about the show? Yeah?
Speaker 1: What's coming up? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we're going to get to know you a
Speaker 2: little bit better and find out your position on massage things.
Speaker 2: A couple of things we're talking about today. We're going
Speaker 2: to talk about the continued fallout of the murder of
Speaker 2: a woman in Minnesota by a nice agent. Was not
Speaker 2: run over, but yeah, I was standing to the side
Speaker 2: and firing in as a drift pas and the Trump
Speaker 2: administration seems to be using this as as an opportunity
Speaker 2: to consolidate power. I think they're hoping it can make
Speaker 2: it so they don't have elections in this year. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so we'll talk about that. We'll talk about you know,
Speaker 2: we're still waiting on the release of the Phil Epstein files,
Speaker 2: but Wired has now released the RFK Heidi Bear Files
Speaker 2: where where he scattered the dead bear and hit it
Speaker 2: in Central Park and there's there's some holes in that story.
Speaker 3: Wait, so what do you mean like this is from
Speaker 3: the actual investigator investigation.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Jesus, Chris.
Speaker 2: So we'll talk about that, and we'll talk about the
Speaker 2: new Robin Hood movie that was just announced that was
Speaker 2: just at first it just seems like it's a logan,
Speaker 2: but Robin Hood it's like Hugh Jackman elderly version of
Speaker 2: Robin Hood looking back and also still pull pulled back
Speaker 2: in for one last job. But it's a one last job.
Speaker 2: Kind it's a one last job. But it also seems
Speaker 2: like it's like, I don't know, Robin Hood seems like
Speaker 2: a bad guy. He's stealing from the rich. We don't
Speaker 2: know that in America.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's the most important. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so all of that plenty more. But first, Andrew,
Speaker 2: we do like to ask our guests, what is something
Speaker 2: that you think about massage technology that is real? Who
Speaker 2: you are?
Speaker 1: This is uh No, my sister gave me a fair
Speaker 1: gun for Christmas? Hell yeah or whatever? I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't celebrate Christmas. Have I been on the show since
Speaker 1: I visited? Maybe basically we didn't, but we basically kind
Speaker 1: of decide my family, we're not actually like Christian or anything.
Speaker 1: We don't need specifically to celebrate Christmas, but like that
Speaker 1: I have a young nephew and blah blah blah. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I want to visit them in like early December. And
Speaker 1: we just told the kid it was Christmas because yeah,
Speaker 1: he's like to just three. Oh he doesn't knows, he
Speaker 1: doesn't really know. Yeah yeah yeah, so like who cares
Speaker 1: you can put out a tree in fucking February and
Speaker 1: yeah yea yeah yeah anyway, and.
Speaker 2: I get to complain, I'll tell you that much.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got a tair gun. I've traditionally thought they
Speaker 1: were kind of stupid, but I hurt my back basically
Speaker 1: two days ago, and it genuinely has helped number one,
Speaker 1: It has helped number two. I think they should be
Speaker 1: illegal this and like blind shooters, I think it should
Speaker 1: be illegal to have one of these safety It's.
Speaker 2: Like, I'm glad that when I need one, I'm glad
Speaker 2: I have them available to me. Yeah. Also they should
Speaker 2: go in the category of things that should be illegal along.
Speaker 1: I would happily if like I like having one, but
Speaker 1: I would happily also think that I should be like
Speaker 1: permitted for this, Like there should just be some bureaucracy
Speaker 1: presenting preventing anyone with however many dollars it takes to
Speaker 1: buy one of these from just having one, because.
Speaker 2: They beat the ship out of you.
Speaker 1: You could hurt so you it's so evident to.
Speaker 2: Do a hard reset. They're helpful in that respect. That
Speaker 2: is hard reset guns.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I just we need I mean, I
Speaker 1: know it's like like we're in the wrong time to
Speaker 1: ask for the nanny state, but come on, this is
Speaker 1: not this is not.
Speaker 2: One man should have all that power.
Speaker 1: No any of this. But also limescooters or bird scooters
Speaker 1: or whatever there you should be forced to wear a
Speaker 1: helmet on those things. It should is crazy, I think
Speaker 1: said show it's crazy. I know I'm fucking old, but
Speaker 1: come on. Yeah, I'm trying to protect you see.
Speaker 2: So many people using those, using those I responsibly, like
Speaker 2: with a like three year old up front.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I saw do with a young kid at
Speaker 3: the front and one in the back.
Speaker 1: Yes, And I was like, y, I cannot do this
Speaker 1: in LA I know I'm an old man's gold, but
Speaker 1: my tales of like what the fuck is wrong with
Speaker 1: gen Z possibly gen Alpha? In Echo Park, it's just
Speaker 1: routine that it's three three children on a Lime screaker.
Speaker 2: That's sort of like you ever put that out there
Speaker 2: and expect people not to use it?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 2: Wait, so useful?
Speaker 1: Was that an adult? No? That was three kids on
Speaker 1: a Lime screen? Literally's three kids on a Lime scooter.
Speaker 1: I am picturing them stacked on each other's shoulders. Here's
Speaker 1: a much worse thing that is only going to end
Speaker 1: in tragedy, but just underscoring the need for human intervention
Speaker 1: from time to time. Do you know that fucking way
Speaker 1: moos don't have any mechanism for checking or preventing how
Speaker 1: many human beings are in the trunk?
Speaker 2: Oh real trunk?
Speaker 1: Interesting because uh, you know my girlfriend and saw a
Speaker 1: pull out in front of her the other day. A
Speaker 1: way more parked, you know, like two.
Speaker 2: Three comes out.
Speaker 1: Three kids got out of the passenger, and then the
Speaker 1: trunk opened and literally five kids got out.
Speaker 2: So are you are you paying on a per I've
Speaker 2: actually never used a way mount, but are you paying
Speaker 2: on a per passenger basis?
Speaker 1: I assume it's a per it's probably per ride basis
Speaker 1: per ride?
Speaker 2: Why are they hiding in the trunk?
Speaker 1: What's that?
Speaker 3: It's just like, look, bro, for the ten dollars ride.
Speaker 3: If fifteen of us pitch in, yeah, it's okay, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: this is.
Speaker 1: A young kids. They created a bus, they created a
Speaker 1: less safe bus. This is this is the that was
Speaker 1: the triagle shirtwaist bus is what is what? Which will
Speaker 1: bring the new dawn of progressivism in? Yeah? Which is what?
Speaker 1: Which is what Silicon Valley seems to have created. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so yeah, apparently that's you know, and and not that
Speaker 1: like fucking like lift and ubers are great either better,
Speaker 1: but like at least they have a human being in
Speaker 1: the front that goes, no, you can't do that, because
Speaker 1: my jail if you cram you know, six eight kids
Speaker 1: in the trunk, So it's your search history.
Speaker 2: At least the way I won't have back there like
Speaker 2: an open bowl of gasoline. I feel like that happened
Speaker 2: to me. There was just a it was like gas
Speaker 2: but it was like in a thing without a top
Speaker 2: on it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, just like reasonable permitting for professionalism is
Speaker 1: like a thing that makes society run better.
Speaker 3: And yeah, this is America, so you know tech is
Speaker 3: gonna tech has to break a few eggs.
Speaker 1: Kill people before we learned that lesson. Yeah, I just
Speaker 1: the hearing about these kids, like basically in real time,
Speaker 1: because she sort of called me as it happened. It
Speaker 1: was like, You're not gonna believe what is happening in
Speaker 1: front of me right now.
Speaker 3: That makes me feel like, yeah, like such a but
Speaker 3: also but I'd be like, hey, I get it, trust me.
Speaker 3: I would have been right in there with you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, on the other side of this lookout.
Speaker 2: What.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, I guess that's that's simply on
Speaker 1: simply on the of.
Speaker 2: Our of our of our sitcom, of our band.
Speaker 1: Coming from ball simply in the aftermath of the fires.
Speaker 2: Someone was saying that way, mos will sometimes get stuck
Speaker 2: like that if somebody like doesn't close the door, they
Speaker 2: being stuck there, and then at a certain point they'll
Speaker 2: start going help help help, like that the way that
Speaker 2: like a kitten's cry is like designed sounds like a
Speaker 2: baby crying like sounds like attacked, like.
Speaker 1: Like the way a predator will mimic the sound of sound. Yeah,
Speaker 1: exactly good, Like producer Victor says, haven't they driven through
Speaker 1: crime scenes and ship probably? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they definitely have.
Speaker 1: So yeah.
Speaker 2: Wait, sometimes they just get britted if like there's something
Speaker 2: going on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like I know that people in San Francisco, we're
Speaker 3: putting just if you put a traffic cone on the hood, on.
Speaker 2: Top of the camera, on top of the little like
Speaker 2: spinny thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just even directly on the hood in front of right,
Speaker 3: because because they they probably prioritize an orange triangle like that.
Speaker 1: So if they see what it makes them have to
Speaker 1: do something makes them and start shooting things. Andrew anything
Speaker 1: from your search history is this is this sort of
Speaker 1: a search history underrated overrated milange we kind of. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think listen, people either get anything else.
Speaker 2: You have to say up top.
Speaker 4: Here's search history was I just got a humid fire
Speaker 4: and I was writing humidifier and looking for ways how
Speaker 4: you're supposed to clean a humidifier, either under or over.
Speaker 1: Whichever is the opposite of the one I already did
Speaker 1: was I made a shipload of shrimp cocktail over the
Speaker 1: holiday season, and like, really doing shrimp cocktail is so
Speaker 1: insanely difficult. It involves like making like a d shelling shrimp.
Speaker 1: I made like a wine lemon shrimp stock herb broth,
Speaker 1: chilled that all the way down. Then you put the
Speaker 1: shrimp which you have been dry brining with salt and
Speaker 1: baking soda out, You poach that to exactly one hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty degrees, then you take that out, chill that immediately,
Speaker 1: served with some old bay. I made my own cocktail
Speaker 1: sauce too, from like a raw horse radish rout. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I like cooking, but when you said dry brining with
Speaker 3: flour and salt, I was like, no.
Speaker 1: Breaking the other thing is so yeah. I got walked
Speaker 1: in on the kitchen individually temping shrimp one at a
Speaker 1: time with my with my probe thermometer, at which point
Speaker 1: I realized I had a problem.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's also I've never had shrimp cocktail that
Speaker 2: tastes as good as what it sounds like. Yours tastes
Speaker 2: like my shrimp. The shrimp cocktail I've ever had just
Speaker 2: tastes like shrimp doesn't. Yeah, it doesn't seem like anything
Speaker 2: was here's the thing, prepare.
Speaker 1: It tasted good, but did it taste one thousand times
Speaker 1: the work good? And the answer, I'm afraid was probably no.
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, it was overrated antil I guess.
Speaker 1: Yeah, overrated is overrated is underestimating from cocktail.
Speaker 2: Not preparating. But a good horse radish that just comes through.
Speaker 2: There's really nothing nothing like that experience when when the
Speaker 2: horse radish just blows through.
Speaker 1: Your blue my fucking I took the pop off the
Speaker 1: blunder and yeah, pepper straight myself. Literally, I grated.
Speaker 5: Some fresh horse radish for a thing I made over
Speaker 5: the holidays, and thatsh It was like cutting onions. I
Speaker 5: was yeah, damn, first time doing it, like buying, you know,
Speaker 5: shredding the root up myself.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the root can't tell if it was worth it. Anyways,
Speaker 1: very good. This sounds like we're trying to avoid the
Speaker 1: heavy news of the day. I know, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: It was something more about humidifiers.
Speaker 1: What's that thing about the shrimp though?
Speaker 3: You put that in the earth ros dang dude, old
Speaker 3: Bay Like Okay.
Speaker 2: I will say humidifiers like turn on, you leave, like
Speaker 2: they're they're there to like help your you know, breathing health, health.
Speaker 2: And then they it's so easy for them, Like I've
Speaker 2: looked inside humidifiers and it's just like ship. It's just
Speaker 2: immediately the entire civilization has grown in there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to clean that ship like every other day. Anyway.
Speaker 1: I used to silled water. That's been helping us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because then it doesn't get what are we doing.
Speaker 3: Let's just get to the white already.
Speaker 2: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back,
Speaker 2: and we're back. We're back, We're back.
Speaker 3: And the thing about making a great cocktail sauce in
Speaker 3: my opinion, Oh my god, guys, yeah, just the last
Speaker 3: week of news already.
Speaker 1: You're like, we're just going, yeah, how are you doing.
Speaker 3: We're just marauding around the country or the earth, plucking, yeah,
Speaker 3: plucking people out of their countries, disappearing them. We've just
Speaker 3: recently just pulled out of like sixty six major international
Speaker 3: treaties like from climate change to fucking everything. We are,
Speaker 3: so we are so clearly going down just down the
Speaker 3: path of further isolationism as we escalate things it's really wild.
Speaker 2: But like over selective isolationism, we will go to your
Speaker 2: country and yeah, out of there.
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, but don't ask me to like play
Speaker 3: by your I guess that's what it is.
Speaker 1: Oh, you want to set the.
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, you could play our game, but
Speaker 3: we're not playing yours the Hague yea oh god.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: But like I mean again, like we talked about this
Speaker 3: yesterday in talking about the murder of Renannicole Good. The
Speaker 3: shooting took like this is every little bit I'm reading, like,
Speaker 3: oh yep, trying to dial the heat up a little
Speaker 3: bit more on the American population to get things to
Speaker 3: boil over, right, So we talked about how that shooting
Speaker 3: was blocks away from where George Floyd was murdered. Ice
Speaker 3: was intentionally there to agitate and provoke as after Trump
Speaker 3: used the scandal that was that there was fraud in
Speaker 3: Minnesota to really blow that open into a huge scene
Speaker 3: of healing for many years. But yeah, yeah, and be
Speaker 3: reported on for many years turn it into a very
Speaker 3: specific anti anti immigrant, anti black immigrant, you know, campaign
Speaker 3: against Somali's there. And uh, it's just so predictable because
Speaker 3: he's really going back to the place that started the
Speaker 3: twenty twenty uprisings in his first administration as a way
Speaker 3: to reignite protests that he will absolutely is just waiting
Speaker 3: to call a crisis that requires some kind of radical
Speaker 3: decision making aka declaring martial law. On top of that,
Speaker 3: there's this other piece that I think is also very
Speaker 3: He also announced that he's cutting off funding for childcare
Speaker 3: and food aid for a very specific set of blue states.
Speaker 3: That's California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, and New York. And these
Speaker 3: are programs that do everything from food assistance to helping
Speaker 3: people pay for food and other basic needs and just
Speaker 3: all just a wide array of social services.
Speaker 1: So the ice.
Speaker 3: Raids and white nationalists rhetoric, that's all getting louder and louder.
Speaker 3: The actions are becoming more brazen, and now he wants
Speaker 3: to like weaponize poverty against parents and children as a
Speaker 3: way to create another potential flashpoint for civil unrest. And
Speaker 3: it's just like Jesus Christ, like this is very yeah,
Speaker 3: Like it's so I don't know, it feels so obvious
Speaker 3: what he's trying to do. Because also part of this too,
Speaker 3: those states are like have very specific reasons why it's
Speaker 3: those these Colorado, California, Illinois, Minnesota, New York are not
Speaker 3: the only blue states clearly, but with California, he will
Speaker 3: always a hatred of this state and Gavin Newsom, so
Speaker 3: he's coming for California, Illinois, Jamie Pritzker Chicago, being able
Speaker 3: to sort of raise the specter of Chicago and the
Speaker 3: violence there.
Speaker 1: I get that. Minnesota, it's obvious. New York again another
Speaker 1: obvious thing, especially with his prosecutions there.
Speaker 3: And then I was like, wait, Colorado, the why is
Speaker 3: Colorado lumped in there? And then I was asking my
Speaker 3: friend who actually works in Colorado, like in the government
Speaker 3: that I was like, why are you guys getting targeted again?
Speaker 3: He's like, it's because of Tina Peters though, the election
Speaker 3: official from Mesa County who was put in jail for
Speaker 3: nine years for fucking with like election systems in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty on Trump's behalf and Trump basically gave pardoned her
Speaker 3: at the end of last year. But those are from
Speaker 3: federal crimes, and she's she's there on state charges and
Speaker 3: the state was like okay, and like, yeah, she's under
Speaker 3: here for violating state law. So that means really nothing,
Speaker 3: and that has created a retribution campaign against Colorad. So
Speaker 3: like all of this is like part retribution, part turning
Speaker 3: up the agitation and desperation on people to get it
Speaker 3: to do. You know, it's like he's poking this thing
Speaker 3: and he's like come on now, like flash over, flash over.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I don't know enough about the strategy
Speaker 1: and politics as at the high level most so they
Speaker 1: don't care for any of the people in it. However,
Speaker 1: I mean there is like a limit to how much
Speaker 1: financial leverage he can leverage against fans California, Like California
Speaker 1: doesn't need his money as much as but.
Speaker 3: It's definitely a process for the people who are the
Speaker 3: bureaucrats in charge of making sure those funds get to
Speaker 3: where they could go. Because once that's big, it's turned off. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's total chaos, yes, but yeah, but I know what
Speaker 3: you mean. It's like it's not sort of like yeah,
Speaker 3: like we're we give more than we receive.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so okay, if if California isn't part of
Speaker 1: the federal financial system.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and again that's those are part of like on
Speaker 3: his part next escalation you see, because you already saw
Speaker 3: Tim Walls put the city National Guard on like warning
Speaker 3: again because of like what's happening with Ice, Like you
Speaker 3: they're it's yeah, it's looking very very different.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I guess all of a sudden, the state's
Speaker 1: rights motherfucker.
Speaker 2: Right, the speed with which the the ICE response to
Speaker 2: the protests that like just immediately, I mean it's been
Speaker 2: bad obviously, but it was just like they were they
Speaker 2: were ready. This was a this was a plan. They
Speaker 2: were like, oh, this is where you start just smoking
Speaker 2: people in the face with fucking you know, pepper spray and.
Speaker 1: Well and also, not to mention, a lot of people
Speaker 1: spotted bore Tac, which is like the border patrols, like
Speaker 1: you know, elite tactical unit there who were there already, Yeah,
Speaker 1: who are already there, and they're like, yeah, they're putting
Speaker 1: everything there because they're expecting, uh, some kind of confrontation
Speaker 1: that they can manipulate into being a justification for whatever
Speaker 1: is coming.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, it's it does seem like it's coming.
Speaker 2: I don't again, like you know, I referenced the fact
Speaker 2: that like people who lived through Putin's rise have always
Speaker 2: been like this is how it happens. It's happening. You're
Speaker 2: going to look a year in the future, and be like, Wow,
Speaker 2: when we thought it couldn't get any worse a year ago,
Speaker 2: we were so so wrong. Like that was much that
Speaker 2: you know, it just keeps getting worse and worse, and
Speaker 2: I think the only thing saving us is you know,
Speaker 2: forms of resistance and community. And then also his incompetence,
Speaker 2: like the fact that the way he seems to be
Speaker 2: doing this is by putting the most incompetent people in
Speaker 2: positions of power and then having them, you know, fuck
Speaker 2: up and then being like, oh my god, you hit us.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, yeah, let them assuming. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: sort of classical right wing shit where it's just like
Speaker 1: assuming assumptions are true, like and so thankfully most of
Speaker 1: the things they believe to be facts are not true. Again,
Speaker 1: doesn't mean they don't have power, doesn't mean they can't
Speaker 1: hurt people, but at least they're wrong about most shit.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, like and yeah, yeah, so so
Speaker 1: that is like the biggest weakness, like, you know, on
Speaker 1: the other side is like not not that it's like
Speaker 1: not saying that this is guerrilla warfare or anything like that,
Speaker 1: but it is a thing where like one of the
Speaker 1: other parts of like America is that it is large
Speaker 1: enough that it is like hard to govern in that
Speaker 1: like force in that way. Like that is that is
Speaker 1: the whole proposition put forth by these fucking wild West people.
Speaker 1: So we'll test it, I suppose, or it's going to
Speaker 1: have to be in some some regards tested. But you know,
Speaker 1: this is the melt away, Like you have border tack there.
Speaker 1: That's an expensive place for them to be and if
Speaker 1: they have nothing to do, they just wasted a bunch
Speaker 1: of money. Admittedly it's our money, but.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, exactly, you just wasted a bunch of mine
Speaker 2: money to go to a finite amount of it.
Speaker 1: So well, yeah, with that new budget, it'll keep flowing.
Speaker 3: But I mean, okay a large but yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: like their resources are wastable, and so can.
Speaker 2: These states just be like, well, you don't get tax
Speaker 2: revenue from us? Now?
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, but that's that's the constitutional crisis we're
Speaker 3: headed towards, because at every turn, this administration is doing
Speaker 3: every imaginably unconstitutional thing they can.
Speaker 1: And it's like, okay, I mean.
Speaker 3: Because there is there, you'd think, in the logic of
Speaker 3: human nature that there will be an escalation to respond
Speaker 3: to this. And it's not just going to be like
Speaker 3: and they all rolled over, which unfortunately expods.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: But now I mean, like because I even think of
Speaker 3: like rhetorically right, like everything they're saying now about Renannicle
Speaker 3: Good is like JD. Vans just said, like, well, you
Speaker 3: know that that ICE agent deserves gratitude for what he did.
Speaker 3: Like they're they are they are getting more in like
Speaker 3: inflammatory and outrageous, like.
Speaker 2: Because they were poking people. They're poking everyone in the chest.
Speaker 1: But they're also doing it in like the most obvious
Speaker 1: like like I mean, because the reality is it's like
Speaker 1: like it's not tactically sound to like engage in gunfire
Speaker 1: with Ice, like like like we're we're not whatever thing
Speaker 1: that you think of as resistance. I think we can
Speaker 1: all agree that tactically like fighting with small.
Speaker 3: Fighting with aren't Yeah, yeah, with the militarized police is
Speaker 3: that's it's.
Speaker 1: Not gonna be the answer. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And now that apparently the name of this agent is
Speaker 3: out Jonathan David Ross, a lot of people are like
Speaker 3: very quickly kind of put it together because first there
Speaker 3: was like a thing that like leaked where this guy's
Speaker 3: been involved with some violent ship already before, which shouldn't
Speaker 3: be a surprise. It's seldom a surprise when any law
Speaker 3: enforcing person does shit like this. There's usually a pattern there.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean I think now because we're like
Speaker 3: at this phase, the rhetoric is like with JD. Vance
Speaker 3: being like, well this person is it deserves gratitude, and
Speaker 3: people are going to start being like the you know,
Speaker 3: Derek Chauvin is actually one of the greats Kylo Rittenhouse
Speaker 3: is a savior type thing.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. It's right because they think have
Speaker 1: been poisoned by like media. They think that Rambo is real,
Speaker 1: they think John Wick is real. And here's the thing.
Speaker 1: That guy's just a violent loser, just like cal Riton
Speaker 1: has a perfect example. Right, Oh, you can lionize them
Speaker 1: all he wants. He's not cool, good, competent and smart,
Speaker 1: like like they think their heroes are. I don't know,
Speaker 1: they're like from movies, I guess, and the like. The
Speaker 1: reality is like so far from that and they just
Speaker 1: can't admit it. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean when I look at it too, this entire
Speaker 3: administration is made up of entitled dudes who have never
Speaker 3: been smacked in the mouth before for the for their behavior,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like their behavior is always
Speaker 3: like what are they gonna do about it? It's sort
Speaker 3: of like and they've no one's ever checked them in
Speaker 3: their life and and that's what I'm sure their whiteness
Speaker 3: and socioeconomic status has afforded them that kind of experience
Speaker 3: through life that's pretty frictionless for you to do whatever
Speaker 3: you think is right for you.
Speaker 1: But like just in like.
Speaker 3: How brazen, like Katie Miller is to post like a
Speaker 3: picture of Greenland with like an American flag like laid
Speaker 3: over it, and like it's eventually gonna happen.
Speaker 1: And Steven Miller is like, who would dare? Test the
Speaker 1: United States militaristically? It's like, bro, look at you. Well,
Speaker 1: you're like you're also in the wrong end of empire
Speaker 1: for this, Like it's not nineteen fifty two or whatever.
Speaker 1: It didn't work that well. Yeah, it's like yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like the China would easily dare.
Speaker 3: It's all it's all built on this sort of like yeah,
Speaker 3: like everyone is sort of in this same world too,
Speaker 3: where they've they've lived consequence free and it's now really
Speaker 3: spilling over into like the world door to We're like
Speaker 3: even a George H. W. Bush was like you gotta
Speaker 3: be a little technical, you see like that that's like
Speaker 3: an old world way of looking at it. But now
Speaker 3: you have these like entitled freaks have just pulled up
Speaker 3: and you're like, it's now the gimme that doctrine, right,
Speaker 3: and yeah.
Speaker 2: They stop stopped trying to put a sheene on it
Speaker 2: where people can tell themselves we're the good guys. They've
Speaker 2: just stopped. They're not.
Speaker 1: It's not that they're not powerful, but just remember everyone,
Speaker 1: they're not smart. They're just not smart.
Speaker 2: They're bad at this, but they're going their intentions are
Speaker 2: like always worse than anyone is, at least in the
Speaker 2: mainstream is giving them credit for.
Speaker 1: Sorry, right, when I say we're smarter than them, I
Speaker 1: don't mean, for instance, like democratic leadership, normal people. No,
Speaker 1: you mean us send the listeners. Yeah, well I mean
Speaker 1: truly though it's like because it's not like the democratic
Speaker 1: leadership are dumb people. So it is one of those
Speaker 1: things where I was like, oh, how could this happen?
Speaker 1: And I do think some of us maybe it's from
Speaker 1: people listening, but probably fewer and fewer people listening than before.
Speaker 1: You need to stop giving these people credit for what
Speaker 1: they say. They're trying to do ru. Yeah. The other
Speaker 1: way to look at it that makes much more sense
Speaker 1: is that this is all happening because this is all
Speaker 1: fine with them. And yeah, and.
Speaker 3: I was saying yesterday, these people are just ideologically not
Speaker 3: built for this moment at all. They were built for
Speaker 3: like the the heyday of you know, like Reaganomics and
Speaker 3: all of this and being like, well, yeah, we're doing
Speaker 3: break but in terms of like sort of principles, I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't even know when the last time you really
Speaker 3: had people in the office that were like that, because
Speaker 3: the whole thing about entering Congress is about just power
Speaker 3: and yea necessarily like representing people.
Speaker 1: But that's the thing. It's like, like I think I
Speaker 1: would argue they are built for this moment and they're
Speaker 1: doing a great job. You just don't know what their
Speaker 1: goals are or you don't want to do it. Their
Speaker 1: goals are not the same goals that we thought we
Speaker 1: want them to be.
Speaker 3: Because like even right now, right you have Senator Chris
Speaker 3: Murphy who is proposing like huge reform to DHS and
Speaker 3: ICE and all this other stuff. But like even that,
Speaker 3: I'm like, that's a thing that has to get through
Speaker 3: the Senate, the house and get through a press get
Speaker 3: and doesn't get vetoed. Yeah, right, like and so I
Speaker 3: get talking about I get the the act of doing
Speaker 3: that and putting that on paper legally, but on some
Speaker 3: level it's like we have to get out of this
Speaker 3: abstract a little bit.
Speaker 1: Well, it's it's necessary but not sufficient, and they think
Speaker 1: it's sufficient is or sorry, right.
Speaker 2: We're doing everything we can.
Speaker 1: Charitable version of interpreting their actions is that they believe
Speaker 1: this is sufficient. Again. The other way is like the
Speaker 1: spand aid worked for fucking fifty years put it on. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're just keeping power dry. Yeah, like burning your powder.
Speaker 1: He just lit your powder on fire, just floated all
Speaker 1: over you. Yeah, yeah, you don't have any powder left.
Speaker 1: It's I mean that was that was my criticism of
Speaker 1: of and Or to me the most, like fucking I
Speaker 1: think I may be said a version of this, but
Speaker 1: I do want to say it again on this show,
Speaker 1: which is that like the most fantastical part of the
Speaker 1: show and Or is that like a wealthy white senator
Speaker 1: would consider throwing right like fantasy, that's your fantasy. All
Speaker 1: the other part you can kind of say, who knows it.
Speaker 2: Needed to set it in a galaxy far far away
Speaker 2: for it to be remotely believable. Yeah, yeah, like Oklahoma.
Speaker 1: I think I might have deleted this tweet at this point,
Speaker 1: but it's like the real life version of mon Mathma
Speaker 1: is someone who's doing this because she owns more stock
Speaker 1: in the company that makes X Wing than she does
Speaker 1: in the company that makes High Fighter.
Speaker 2: Like that's the only reason why, the.
Speaker 3: Only reason she do that may inspire somebody who needed
Speaker 3: that whimsical example to become a class trader.
Speaker 1: You never know, Andrew need.
Speaker 2: Some class traders we need to do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Well, I don't know, we'll see.
Speaker 3: Maybe the final episode of Stranger Things when that comes out,
Speaker 3: will help.
Speaker 2: It's going to lead the way forward.
Speaker 3: The people are fucking I'm worried about them.
Speaker 2: It's such a good point about just like the shallow
Speaker 2: pool of dipshits that they're pulling from, like with the
Speaker 2: Kyle Rittenhouse, and now you've got like Erica kirk As
Speaker 2: like supposed supposedly this like spiritual leader of the future,
Speaker 2: and just like look at interviews with her, or like
Speaker 2: you look at that Oklahoma student who like got her
Speaker 2: TA suspended for just writing a thing on gender roles,
Speaker 2: those like I think you are wrong and heretofore also
Speaker 2: I will say the Bible says that you are wrong.
Speaker 2: And like they printed that shit like in on Turning Point,
Speaker 2: like they printed like it should have been like a
Speaker 2: reveal by a mainstream account of like look at how
Speaker 2: dumb this shit is, but they printed it like they
Speaker 2: just they don't there. They really don't respect the intelligence
Speaker 2: of the general public. They will just tell you you're not
Speaker 2: seeing what you're seeing. They will tell you like this
Speaker 2: person is smart and charismatic. They will tell you that
Speaker 2: this essay makes sense, it is good and does not
Speaker 2: deserve it.
Speaker 1: And it's fully like poned academia with that take.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean they have power and they are winning, but
Speaker 1: they're not smarter good. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And it's funny too because you look at just the
Speaker 3: varying levels of out of touch, like like it's like
Speaker 3: Republicans are wealthy and only talk to mostly white Christian people,
Speaker 3: so they have like their version of reality that they put.
Speaker 1: On there, like Erica kirk Man, that's the goat. People
Speaker 1: gonna follow that. You know, us, we get this person.
Speaker 1: Everyone else like.
Speaker 3: What the fuck are they talking about, and then Democrats
Speaker 3: have the same version where they're like, but we also
Speaker 3: talk to like people of color and gay people, but
Speaker 3: we all also out of touch in our own unique way.
Speaker 3: So where that it's it, it just doesn't connect in
Speaker 3: the in the in the ways that that matter. But again, uh,
Speaker 3: there's a lot of time, there's a lot of time
Speaker 3: to see what happens here, and I'm sure as like
Speaker 3: every time I refresh like a newsfeed, I'm like transforming
Speaker 3: what's going on, what's going Uh, it's just it's just
Speaker 3: more awful, just vitriol coming out of the right wing
Speaker 3: to try and justify what's happened.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: God, I can't wait until they just going back to
Speaker 2: the shitty their shitty bench, because they really just have
Speaker 2: like Trump having those weird religious connection with poor people
Speaker 2: in this country and then obviously not religious, but you know,
Speaker 2: yeah cynical connection with cynical connection with the rich people
Speaker 2: in this country, where it's just like, yeah, he just
Speaker 2: does whatever the fuck we tell them to. But like
Speaker 2: when when they when when that ends for whatever reason,
Speaker 2: and they're trying to pass that on to JD. Van's
Speaker 2: I can't I can't wait on junior to watch everybody
Speaker 2: whose body reject these motherfuckers like yeah, oh.
Speaker 1: We'll see. I mean to say, committed they are to
Speaker 1: the bit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, let's take a quick break. We'll be
Speaker 2: right back. And we're back. We're back, and the story
Speaker 2: so so wired got the the files on that RFK
Speaker 2: Junior dead bear investigation, and it did but like it's
Speaker 2: kind of we we know all the beats. He scavenged
Speaker 2: the dead bear from the side of the road to
Speaker 2: eat it, then went out with friends before remembering he
Speaker 2: had to catch a flight.
Speaker 1: He was going to eat that again.
Speaker 2: He was planning to take it to his big meat
Speaker 2: freezer at his house. He's like, he came, he drove
Speaker 2: up upon somebody who had just hit a one year
Speaker 2: old baby bear and was like, I don't know what
Speaker 2: to do. And he was like, wait, you're not gonna
Speaker 2: You're gonna waste all that bear meat through to the
Speaker 2: back of his car, drove into a dinner that he
Speaker 2: was having in Manhattan, right, yes, yeah, yeah, and then
Speaker 2: was planning to take it back to his house and
Speaker 2: then realized that he had a flight to catch and
Speaker 2: didn't have time to drop it off at his house
Speaker 2: and so then went to this is the part that
Speaker 2: has always like stuck in my brain and I hadn't
Speaker 2: really put it together until this Wired article was like, wait,
Speaker 2: this doesn't make any fucking stuff. Then drove out of
Speaker 2: his way to Central Park and like staged a weird
Speaker 2: like bike accident that had killed the bear in Central
Speaker 2: Park before then driving to this flight that he had
Speaker 2: to catch. And this Wired article is like looking at
Speaker 2: all the locations like he would have he would have
Speaker 2: had time to just bring it to his house much
Speaker 2: more than he would have his way to fucking go
Speaker 2: to Central Park and like stage this thing, Like it
Speaker 2: doesn't none of it makes it. It's almost that it
Speaker 2: was like he thought the whole point was to stage
Speaker 2: this accident for what end. I have no idea other
Speaker 2: than he is just absolutely yeah, there is probably some
Speaker 2: level of like, yeah, maybe maybe this is not right.
Speaker 1: In fact, this is definitely not right, but like there's
Speaker 1: probably some level of rich person that just can't conceive
Speaker 1: of a green space in New York besides Central Park
Speaker 1: or like even kind of in the Tri state area.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's one of the woods. For all, he knew
Speaker 1: that that's all all the woods you got. But yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean or if like if you just zoom out right,
Speaker 3: like take what his account is he found it bear
Speaker 3: and then it ends up in Central Park.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was upstate, like on the side
Speaker 2: of a highway going into New York City.
Speaker 3: So it's like maybe he tried to eat it or
Speaker 3: something and then he realized like, ah shit, I can't
Speaker 3: do this, and then he's like, fuck it, let me
Speaker 3: ditch this thing in the park and then I'll make
Speaker 3: up this whole other story about how to go to
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, like is any of that relevant?
Speaker 3: More just like what do you what were you up
Speaker 3: to with this fucking band? Yeah, the wise as to
Speaker 3: how it ended up there, in my mind, you got
Speaker 3: the bear, something wasn't up to scruff, and you're like,
Speaker 3: fuck it, I'm gonna existing in the park.
Speaker 2: If he was driving to one of the this is
Speaker 2: from the Wired article. If if he was driving to
Speaker 2: one of the three airports closest to Peter Luger, that
Speaker 2: was a strame. Peter Luke he was like Peter Luger.
Speaker 2: That would be strange because there is no direct route
Speaker 2: to any of them that comes remotely close to West
Speaker 2: sixty ninth Street. Does this mean Kennedy drove twenty to
Speaker 2: forty minutes out of the way to drop off the bear,
Speaker 2: then completely changed directions to drive twenty to sixty five
Speaker 2: minutes to one of those airports. Alternately, gone to the
Speaker 2: Westchester County Airport W Barrow where he did in Central Park,
Speaker 2: would have added about forty five minutes to his trip.
Speaker 1: There's a real indictment or prospect Park, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: He should park. Obviously Parks dropped it off at the
Speaker 1: park prior Parks Food co Op.
Speaker 2: The problem here is that Kennedy lived just fifteen minutes
Speaker 2: from this airport at the time, meaning it would have
Speaker 2: taken him less time for him to get to the
Speaker 2: airport if he had just brought the bearer to his home,
Speaker 2: which was allegedly his original plan.
Speaker 3: But like, that's what I'm saying, so we have to
Speaker 3: take that off the table. There was no key, there
Speaker 3: was no putting that in the freeze.
Speaker 2: It seems like something that would be in one of
Speaker 2: the pictures that they like reveal at the end of
Speaker 2: the Hangover, you know, where they're like, I don't know,
Speaker 2: and then and then here's us with a dead bear.
Speaker 2: That we hit and then like we set it up
Speaker 2: in central and he's supposedly like a sober person and
Speaker 2: he's the least sober seat mean person of all times.
Speaker 2: Everything he does seem some ship that.
Speaker 3: A person would do in a black app I mean, like,
Speaker 3: didn't his uncle got away with killing someone in a
Speaker 3: pretty uh, pretty sloppy way. So maybe he's like, I
Speaker 3: don't know, I put the bear in a bike near it.
Speaker 3: That's how we do it. Baby. The thing that like
Speaker 3: all this.
Speaker 1: Like logic does kind of not account for. They could
Speaker 1: also just be the dumb whims of a generationally rich person.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, that is consistent is him saying all
Speaker 1: these things and on some level quote unquote intending to
Speaker 1: do those but really just doing the thing that he
Speaker 1: wanted to do at the moment. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think he got caught probably abusing a bear. Course
Speaker 3: I have no idea. That's what's so harrowing. It's like
Speaker 3: what even compels would be like heys and get that
Speaker 3: bear in the car and then you're like, fuck, bro,
Speaker 3: this isn't work.
Speaker 2: Like driving by somebody who had just hit a bear
Speaker 2: screeching on your brakes to be like say, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: eat that.
Speaker 1: How much does a one year old bear weigh a
Speaker 1: couple hundred pounds?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was about a couple of hundred pounds,
Speaker 2: would be my guest.
Speaker 1: It's so hard to do.
Speaker 2: It is so hard to do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that that's why it just seems like he's
Speaker 1: a I mean, my my guess would be something like
Speaker 1: the bear wasn't totally dead when it was put in
Speaker 1: the car. They did like whatever, horrible or just didn't
Speaker 1: you know, use and I mean a black I don't
Speaker 1: know of where a bear. Oh that's how much the
Speaker 1: bear was. Yeah, oh god, that's so horrible. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: think he's probably some sociopath ship where the bear wasn't
Speaker 1: totally dead. It was like crying in the trunk and
Speaker 1: like some shit like that, you know, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I get wait for me to get to sleep at
Speaker 1: night anyway.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 1: That's that's the head of Health and Human Services. So yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah, but that's that's the other side of it, right.
Speaker 1: It's like they're incompetent. They're like incompetent in ways that
Speaker 1: you maybe can't even imagine. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like
Speaker 1: incomprehensibly incompetent, exactly, incomprehensible.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like yeah rfk, he's like like a rich kid
Speaker 3: mark to me in my old college drug dealer like
Speaker 3: brain where I would I could put like the most
Speaker 3: at the time we call it schwag, but like dirt
Speaker 3: weed into a medical weed container and tell him as
Speaker 3: medical and charge him five times for it. He'd be like,
Speaker 3: that's so sick, bro, thank you, dog, thank you, And
Speaker 3: I'm like, exactly, if we'll get the fuck out of here,
Speaker 3: that's that's I think that's the way he's on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, I think, But that's like that's so
Speaker 1: so going back to like the first story, which is
Speaker 1: just a really underline like they're not playing four D checks,
Speaker 1: they're playing one dimensional checkers. They're putting my bear. And
Speaker 1: yet do not like waste your time thinking like, oh,
Speaker 1: well they're doing this, so I just this. They're not
Speaker 1: thinking of that, Like, don't level yourself up to like
Speaker 1: playing an opponent who's smarter than you think you are,
Speaker 1: because this is this is like a poker thing. You
Speaker 1: will you will actually start to lose against people who
Speaker 1: are worse than you because you give them too much credit.
Speaker 1: Like be real about who you know you're dumb.
Speaker 3: Everyone is yet yeah, I mean example, way more predictive
Speaker 3: power than like you're like, oh, what what's their angle?
Speaker 1: Their their angle is the thing that they are doing.
Speaker 3: Their angle is go back to Minneapolis, because last time
Speaker 3: there was an uprisings like that across there was because
Speaker 3: of something that happened to people in Minneapolis and the
Speaker 3: rest of the world responded.
Speaker 1: And he's there's an insulting about the people in this
Speaker 1: block in Minneapolis, or is there dummies?
Speaker 2: Like yeah, we do love doing that though, making making
Speaker 2: bad guys smarter than they are. Yeah, I've always said
Speaker 2: we did that with Hitler, like Hillary is a FLA.
Speaker 1: Because because we feel bad that we are being beaten
Speaker 1: by fucking dummies, because we have been put into this
Speaker 1: idea that it is a meritocracy and you simply cannot
Speaker 1: achieve power without intelligence. And once you release that from
Speaker 1: your worldview, you start to realize, no, they're just bullied.
Speaker 1: They're lucky. But that's fine, lot.
Speaker 2: But somebody has to get that lucky. Like there is
Speaker 2: a lottery winner. It's not gonna be you, but there
Speaker 2: is a lottery winner, but it doesn't mean a lottery winner.
Speaker 2: And they're going to act like they fucking were playing
Speaker 2: forty chess every time in America. That's they will write
Speaker 2: everybody you will help them out of the book, out
Speaker 2: of you know, go look at the CEO biographies. They
Speaker 2: will write every person that helped them out of the
Speaker 2: book and like get a ghost right to make up
Speaker 2: a narrative where they are like some shrewd maverick that musk.
Speaker 1: One of them. Like two months into getting unfettered access
Speaker 1: to his thoughts, you see that not only is he
Speaker 1: not the smartest man alive, he is easily stupider than
Speaker 1: you by a significicking margin.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So, like, but everything's computer. Wow, look at that.
Speaker 2: Everything is computer. And I look at him and I
Speaker 2: tell him to turn on. Hey, I come back six
Speaker 2: minutes later. I'm ready to go. He's got laptop on
Speaker 2: and he he's got.
Speaker 3: The thera gun out hard reset time to ascend, time
Speaker 3: to temple.
Speaker 1: Time to ascend.
Speaker 2: Y'all, this thing.
Speaker 1: Should again should not be legal. It should not. I
Speaker 1: love it. You're like, this thing shouldn't be legalized, just
Speaker 1: like wave it around. I've been holding it this whole time.
Speaker 3: You're such a little kid or red my kid, like
Speaker 3: a new gift and like, I love this thing forever.
Speaker 1: He's and you're holding a thera gun and a knife.
Speaker 1: It's so powerful, truly. Yeah.
Speaker 3: You know, hey, dude, pick a knife on the thera gun.
Speaker 1: Take us all. Yeah, this is this is and now
Speaker 1: you've got a Turkey carver. You guys are hearing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is just read about me in the new I
Speaker 1: can't wait to see you with your hands bandaged up
Speaker 1: next time. Might see you.
Speaker 3: It's just some fucking weird knife there again, this was
Speaker 3: something else, dude. I was making a shrimp talk down.
Speaker 2: All right, uh so, and our final story. I was
Speaker 2: just saying the other day, you know what, we don't
Speaker 2: have enough of his movies about robin Hood. They've only
Speaker 2: had like three in the last five years. There's only
Speaker 2: like twenty five in development. There's a trailer for a
Speaker 2: new one that looks kind of cool in that it
Speaker 2: stars Hugh Jackman as an elder. It's basically Logan but
Speaker 2: Robin Hood. It's like elderly version of Robin Hood, laying low,
Speaker 2: old man like but more violent. He's just like so
Speaker 2: bris little and shit that he's gonna fucking kill everybody?
Speaker 1: Was it? Kevin Costner one kind of violent or is
Speaker 1: that one still pretty sanitized? I guess still Kevin is.
Speaker 2: Still pretty sanitized. And when they show that ass Austin
Speaker 2: as Wait, I remember being like, that's not a good ass.
Speaker 3: I don't know why, seeing how old Hugh Jackman looked
Speaker 3: like long gray hair and thinking that person is called Robin,
Speaker 3: feels like you too old. Yeah, Robin's a little baby
Speaker 3: boy with this rob like you should be Robert Robert. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: that was like my whole thought was like that Robin
Speaker 3: is a child's name, was a young person.
Speaker 1: It's a young person's game.
Speaker 2: Who me, my name is Robin? My name Robby?
Speaker 1: I mean he should say Robin Hood long beat, stare
Speaker 1: right in the camera and just go get it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: of Locksley, you know what I'm saying. So they should
Speaker 1: do a naked gun Robin Hood. I guess I mean
Speaker 1: it was Yeah. No, they should do another one with.
Speaker 2: The last successful Robin Hood movie that was actually profitable
Speaker 2: is Robin Hood men in tights.
Speaker 1: They keep making that they are expensive, Well I do think,
Speaker 1: I mean, this one at least has taken the no
Speaker 1: that look. Game of Thrones exists, so you can't really
Speaker 1: do some ship with swords and bows and arrows. That
Speaker 1: isn't insane at this point, like because otherwise it's so sanitized.
Speaker 1: That's part of the problem to me with like, you know,
Speaker 1: doing more Lord of the Rings. It's not that it
Speaker 1: inherently doesn't work, it's just that the audience is a
Speaker 1: little past it. I think.
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure, because that like
Speaker 3: that that opened the door for everything else.
Speaker 1: You like, yeah, you need to see like fucking like
Speaker 1: gruesome throats being eyeballs cut out, and Lord.
Speaker 3: Of the Rings was like the weed of fantasy books
Speaker 3: and we just went deeper and now everyone's just like
Speaker 3: doing Black Tar.
Speaker 1: Heroin fans, it's a little like, oh that's cute, like
Speaker 1: the dragons, fuck the Wizard or oh no, no, oh,
Speaker 1: then what the fuck I mean?
Speaker 2: Kind of so I will say there's there is some
Speaker 2: controversy about this one. I think it's still too early
Speaker 2: to tell how exactly they're going to handle it. But
Speaker 2: the trailer is like, oh, you thought we were good guys,
Speaker 2: Robin Hood Doug, we were. The stuff I've done is
Speaker 2: fucked up.
Speaker 1: You want me to make.
Speaker 3: You a boo and arrow?
Speaker 2: No, if he's still if that's all him being like,
Speaker 2: we were fucked up. Yeah, we stole from the rich
Speaker 2: and gave to the poor, but we were fucked up.
Speaker 2: Like that still works. If he's like, we're fucked up
Speaker 2: and economically we shouldn't have been doing what we were,
Speaker 2: that would learn that would be a real bummer.
Speaker 1: But they were taking from the providers, from the job creators.
Speaker 1: It's actually's the lower class more than if.
Speaker 2: They're like, we were in the middle of like a
Speaker 2: wild class warfare and I'm not proud of some of
Speaker 2: the ship I did, but I did it, Like, I'm
Speaker 2: okay with that. That's cool. If he's like, no, good,
Speaker 2: no blain, I mean probably.
Speaker 1: It's some version of like, no, it's like Pablo Escobar,
Speaker 1: like give to the poor was a tactic like everything else. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's actually.
Speaker 2: I could even FuG with that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: A lots of people, a lot of people are like
Speaker 2: Robin Hood was evil. Taking from the rich and giving
Speaker 2: to the poor is kind of a weird message during
Speaker 2: the second trumpet.
Speaker 1: I think that is hopefully just part of the vedo. Listen,
Speaker 1: all I'm saying is, you know, I love Jody Comer
Speaker 1: as an actor, but what if she were a photo realistic,
Speaker 1: live action, incredibly sexy Fox. Now, this is just throwing
Speaker 1: that out there. This is something to think about in
Speaker 1: terms of the live Disney reboots. Yeah, don't let them
Speaker 1: hear about it. Don't let Bob hear about that. The
Speaker 1: animal Robin hood is the one that needs to get done.
Speaker 2: That is that plays a very significant role in a
Speaker 2: lot of people.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, and that like I'm just saying Jen
Speaker 1: Alfa deserves to have their version of the same feeling.
Speaker 3: I mean, like, yeah, they're they're having their first experience
Speaker 3: with being let down by a TV show. I feel
Speaker 3: like there's a whole generation of people right now the
Speaker 3: Stranger Things and all the conspiracy theories, where like a
Speaker 3: lot of like people slightly are like, oh, yeah, this
Speaker 3: is a thing that happens. You get a real attached
Speaker 3: to a show for many years and then they leave
Speaker 3: you in the lurch. Yeah narratively, So yeah, maybe they
Speaker 3: do need their fucks sexy Fox.
Speaker 2: Like they're like, there's actually gonna be a new episode
Speaker 2: that fixes all this shit, whereas the Lost People just
Speaker 2: had to be like it was actually good. And here's
Speaker 2: four hundred and fifty page dissertation.
Speaker 3: That's a different version of denial, where it's like one
Speaker 3: version it's you're in denial about the L by justifying
Speaker 3: how bad it was, and the other version of not
Speaker 3: taking the L is by saying no, there's gonna be
Speaker 3: another one that actually like addresses all this.
Speaker 1: This is listen, this is the perfect time for some
Speaker 1: enterprising tech pro to truly throw a temper tantrum and
Speaker 1: just show us what show us what I could really do, guys, right, Sody.
Speaker 2: Johnson from some More News like had had this interpretation
Speaker 2: of lost now that I don't remember at all now,
Speaker 2: but I was like, that is so much better than
Speaker 2: if they did, Like if they had done that would
Speaker 2: have been great. That is not what they did though,
Speaker 2: that was not what was up on the screen, but
Speaker 2: like that's fucking cool, Like they should have just had
Speaker 2: you make it.
Speaker 3: What's like the best version of this Robin Hood thing,
Speaker 3: Like it's probably where it's like it's a little more
Speaker 3: complex than I was, just like some dude who was
Speaker 3: like being like, yeah, man, I just gave it all
Speaker 3: the way to more like yeah it was, I'm a scumbag,
Speaker 3: but like I also I was in touch with like
Speaker 3: the struggles of people, So.
Speaker 1: I did like let him in.
Speaker 3: Also, did I murder a few too many people? In the.
Speaker 1: Did I get carried away? Yeah?
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 1: I feel like it said there was a cost and
Speaker 1: and he'll you know some version of like, oh you know,
Speaker 1: was it even worth it? I don't know. I have
Speaker 1: so much I think.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because there's like a thing where the poster taglines
Speaker 3: like he was no hero, and I feel like that's
Speaker 3: some Robin Hood asked ship to say about what you
Speaker 3: did your own ship?
Speaker 1: He Robin, I want sweet tea?
Speaker 3: Yeah you know how many melons I split? He sculls
Speaker 3: up pop bro.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, the sound of an arrow, It would also
Speaker 1: arrow go you know me?
Speaker 3: Oh shit, Robin Hood's coming with his merry band to me.
Speaker 1: Yeah in this movie. In this movie, Robin Hood does
Speaker 1: invent dance Hall, which is like, really weird. It's a
Speaker 1: really weird.
Speaker 2: Is that part I wasn't crazy about? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, they're like I hear them galloping, I
Speaker 3: hear them coming.
Speaker 2: Andrew T such a pleasure having you as always on
Speaker 2: the daily's like where can people find you? Follow you?
Speaker 2: All that good stuff?
Speaker 1: Yeah, the the andrew T social media doing a premium
Speaker 1: podcast on dot com called starter Track. Really enjoying it.
Speaker 1: I don't even remember what episode we're listening to. You

Speaker 1: watching Bad Sisters on TV. I really like it. It's old.
Speaker 1: What's it about some bad some bad nuns. No, it's
Speaker 1: just it's some bad sisters. I remember that there was
Speaker 1: Sharon Sharon Horgan and her sisters killed a horrible man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's blessed. But then in the second season you
Speaker 2: find out that they're no heroes.
Speaker 1: There no hero I was god, that was a bad man.
Speaker 2: There's lost ups. That guy was actually right to be mean.

Speaker 3: because work.
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly.
Speaker 3: But look, we've we haven't won since I was in
Speaker 3: I graduated high school and I've been watching since then.
Speaker 3: It's a long road, baby, but I'm just selling you
Speaker 3: that's the thing that I think why so many Arsenal
Speaker 3: fans are so activated, because we look so good and
Speaker 3: if we can do it, it's going to be like
Speaker 3: a mass Catharsis event.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, you're all you've all been holding it in
Speaker 1: for so long, but you're all collectively just getting ready
Speaker 1: to release you Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: And then a work in media like there. I posted
Speaker 3: this thing on my Instagram stories and it's funny because
Speaker 3: the people's reception of it was so mixed and I
Speaker 3: have to just play it for the both of you.
Speaker 1: It was this clip. It says me pooping in the
Speaker 1: shower and throwing it over into the toilet and it's okay,
Speaker 1: it's stupid. It's stupid.
Speaker 3: Some look, I love y'all, I'm not shitting in the shower.
Speaker 3: And someone was like, why would you do that?
Speaker 6: The idea it's this stupid imagery and that was from
Speaker 6: s R. A Como Como Floyd s R A c
Speaker 6: O M A L F O Y.
Speaker 1: Anyway, I will say this, this is so gross, but
Speaker 1: this really happened. And this is one of my earliest
Speaker 1: memories as being in I believe whatever zoo is in
Speaker 1: San Francisco with my family and we were young enough
Speaker 1: that my sister was still in a stroller, and I
Speaker 1: remember we have a stroller because an orangutan just fully
Speaker 1: ship his hand and hook shot at it and just
Speaker 1: switched right right in the stroller. Yeah, it was. It
Speaker 1: was incredible.
Speaker 3: It was you're how how old are you at the time?
Speaker 1: I mean, how what's the oldest a kid can mean?
Speaker 1: A stroller? Guys? You guys need tour depends to watch
Speaker 1: probably six six seven somewhere in there. I was six
Speaker 1: seven six.
Speaker 2: I was, man, you are in touch with the youth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, but it was it was genuinely like because
Speaker 1: my mom narrated like the whole thing, as in, oh well,
Speaker 1: this couldn't possibly happen. It just like it all happened. Swish. Yeah. Anyway,
Speaker 1: gross work.
Speaker 2: Media I've been enjoying is from Cesari Jen Strouswick. How
Speaker 2: I was always pronouncing that in my head. He is
Speaker 2: a writer from back in the cracked days, and he
Speaker 2: wrote on Blue Sky I'm playing two chess grandmasters by mail,
Speaker 2: one as white, the other as black. I just send
Speaker 2: them each other's moves. They both think I'm a genius.
Speaker 2: Both invite me to their homes to make love to
Speaker 2: their wives since they watch from the closet. That's when
